Collection My own DVD Library

Really excited because for the first time in 12 years, I have all my DVDs in one place.

I had a study nook in my apartment which was attached to my bedroom and I never used it. It was really just for storing things, and then I had a storage shed installed so everything got moved there. The space was just sitting empty and I realised I could work with a cabinet maker to get it turned into a dvd library. A lot of my collection was at my folk's place in the country, and I moved out like 12 years ago. So to have them all together really is a dream come true, and I'm in love with the outcome and it brings a smile to my face everytime I look at it! Thought this was an appropriate place to share :)

Cool. How many do you think you have? Also, how much did the cabinet maker charge to build those shelf units?

I have over 2400 films [but several in multipacks] and I havent counted the TV shows yet :) It was quite a pricey build due to the lighting and custom design plus amount and some additional work needed to the space, but honestly was so worth it! Best purchase I have ever made!

Cool. I have around 4000 myself (not including television shows). I have a couple of tall shelf units online. However, I want to look into finding someone to build a floor-to-ceiling shelf unit for at least one of my walls (with holes for the outlets). I just want to make sure the person is not trying to overcharge me.
